Hardwire cell phone?

For all of us non-Bluetooth phone owners...

Has anyone attempted to hardwire his mobile phone to the 04TL? Even if I can't get the complete benefits of Bluetooth, I would still like to be able to hit the phone button on the wheel and switch the radio to "phone mode" where I can use the car speakers to listen to calls. Any ideas how to do this?

Don't you think it's better/cheaper/easier to get a Bluetooth cell instead of to refit your car for this whole setup?

Umm good luck, I really don't see how this would be possible. Quit being cheap and pick up a Bluetooth phone Do you have a GSM Service provider? I happen to work for one

Honestly after using a Samsung a530 (Verizon) and a SonyEricsson T616 (AT&T GSM) I revert back to my Verizon phone very often.

Bluetooth is great, but the AT&T service is crap. Can't wait for the Cingular merger to complete.

I actually own a Kyocera 7135, the best palm/phone hybrid in existance, which I have no plans of parting anytime soon.

Maybe when Kyocera or another company makes a new generation of hybrid phones which support Bluetooth, I'll get one. But until then, I need another solution.

So CHEAP != ME.
